RICHARDSON  &  BOYNTON  CO. 


NEW  “PERFECT”  FURNACE 

(TRADE  MARK) 

For  Coal  and  Wood.  A  Remarkably  Powerful  Heater 

These  furnaces  are  filling  a  large  demand  fora  heater  in  which  coal  is  mostly 
used,  and  yet  in  which  many  times  it  is  more  convenient  to  use  wood,  especially 
in  the  early  fall  and  late  season,  and  there  has  never  been  a  furnace  that  has  given 
such  universal  satisfaction. 

They  are  large  furnaces  with  large  diameters  and  sizes  of  combustion  cham¬ 
ber  on  account  of  the  double  fuel  purposes  for  which  they  are  intended.  There 
is  nothing  cheap  about  them,  except  in  value,  as  they  are  splendidly  constructed, 
very  strong  and  durable,  put  together  by  machine,  with  the  largest  diameter  as 
well  as  height  of  revertible-flue  combustion  chamber  that  has  ever  been  put  into 
a  furnace. 

The  circulation  of  air  is  directly  upward  from  the  base,  through  to  the  top 
of  the  body.  The  smoke  is  all  carried  to  the  front  and  backwards  on  both  sides 
outside  of  the  air  space  The  result  is  the  flame  has  a  long  fire  travel. 

They  are  fitted  with  large  double-feed  doors,  so  that  chunks  of  wood  can  be 
utilized  when  wanted,  and  also  titled  with  wood  grates  constructed  especially  for 
wood  fuel.  These  are  intentionally  enormously  powerful  coal  furnaces,  especially 
made  for  coal,  but  with  the  conveniences  they  have  can  have  wood-burning 
facilities  combined  with  those  of  coal.  This  construction  gives  a  furnace  in 
which  a  consumer  can  use  either  fuel,  one  as  well  as  the  other — a  feature  that  is 
much  appreciated  in  wood  sections  of  the  country. 

The  ash-pits  are  large  and  deep.  The  furnaces  are  fitted  with  “  Perfect” 
triangular  grate  bars,  which  are  the  best  bars  ever  put  into  a  furnace,  keeping  the 
ashes  out  from  the  fire  chamber  and  easily  agitating  the  fire. 

The  whole  construction  of  this  furnace,  with  the  large  revertible  flue,  high 
body  or  radiator,  its  large  diameter,  the  large  air  space  in  the  radiator,  both  inside 
and  outside,  the  light  of  the  fire  shining  on  a  very  large  proportion  of  the  heat¬ 
ing  surface,  and  all  of  the  heating  surface  coming  in  contact  with  the  heat  and 
flame  and  gases,  gives  enormous  capacity  for  the  purpose  of  heating  air.  This  is 
what  makes  power  in  a  furnace. 

These  furnaces  will  do  more  work  than  any  coal  or  wood  furnace  ever  made 
of  the  same  dimensions,  because  of  their  scientific  construction  for  heating  large 
area  with  an  economical  use  of  fuel.

RICHARDSON  &  BOYNTON  CO. 


“PERFECT”  SOFT  COAL  FURNACE 

(TRADE  MARK) 

All  Cast-iron.  Fitted  with  Oxygen  Blast  Supply 

These  soft  coal  furnaces  are  having  an  enormous  sale.  They 
were  made  for  the  particular  purpose  of  burning  soft  coal,  and  with 
these  furnaces  soft  coal  fuel  is  used  successfully  by  the  oxygen  air- 
blast  supply  through  the  back  of  the  furnace  into  and  above  the 
surface  of  the  tire  as  well  as  into  the  middle  of  the  fire  chamber 
directly  into  the  body  of  the  coal. 

To  burn  soft  coal  it  must  have  a  supply  of  oxygen.  This  air 
becomes  heated.  The  result  is  the  smoke  from  soft  coal  is  largely 
consumed  and  makes  as  near  perfect  combustion  as  it  is  possible  to 
do  under  the  circumstances. 

It  has  a  large,  high  ash-pit.  The  “Perfect”  revolving  grate 
bars  are  the  best  grates  ever  put  into  a  furnace ;  has  dust  flue,  a 
very  large  feed  door,  making  it  convenient  for  feeding  soft  coal,  and 
it  has  a  large  powerful  heating  surface,  long  fire  travel,  cast-iron  radi¬ 
ator,  particularly  constructed  so  that  the  heating  surface  of  the 
furnace  is  heated  by  the  flame  and  gases  coming  in  contact  with  it. 

The  universal  reports  of  large  numbers  of  the  most  successful 
members  of  the  trade  in  the  soft  coal  districts,  who  have  an  enormous 
sale  on  these  furnaces,  warrant  us  in  saying  they  are  the  best  soft 
coal  heating  furnaces  that  have  ever  been  made.  They  are  heavy, 
strong  and  durable,  easy  to  set  up,  easy  to  manage,  and  they  please 
the  consumers.

CUAN 
OUT  i 


In  the  manufacture  of  our  new  generators,  we  have  obtained  the  largest  amount  of  direct  positive 
radiating  heating  surface.  Constructed  on  scientific  principles,  embracing  all  the  newest  ideas  of  the 
highest  authorities  and  producing  the  largest  amount  of  heat  with  a  given  quantity  of  fuel.  All  of  the 
products  of  combustion  are  first  carried  to  and  held  in  the  immense  combustion  chamber,  then  toward 
the  rear  into  the  smoke-receiving  chamber  of  the  radiator,  then  to  the  front  on  each  side  into  the  front 
heating  chamber,  and  out  through  the  center  exit  flue  to  the  smoke  pipe. 

Each  of  the  front  and  rear  heating  chambers,  through  which  pass  all  the  products  of  combustion, 
have  an  immense  radiating  surface,  over  which  air  directly  passes,  and  which  additionally  increases 
the  unusual  heating  capacity  of  these  heat-generating  furnaces  over  those  usually  made.  It  means 
smaller  consumption  of  coal,  because  of  the  saving  and  utilizing  of  the  products  of  combustion.

FURNACE 


FOR  SOFT  COAL 


The  test  this  furnace  has  had  under  the  most  trying  circum¬ 
stances,  using  all  kinds  and  sorts  of  soft  coal,  from  the  cheapest  and 
most  sulphurous  to  the  best  soft  coal,  have  proven  any  kind  of  fuel 
can  be  well  used,  that  coking  is  done  to  perfection,  the  gases  all 
consumed*  and  the  smoke  nuisance  prevented  to  an  extent  that  has 
been  simply  amazing. 

This  “Perfect”  furnace  overcomes  the  trouble  now  existing  in 
old-style  furnaces,  as  follows  :  It  prevents  smoke  very  largely  ;  there 
is  no  gummy  soot;  the  furnace  is  always  clean;  no  sooty  smell  in 
house ;  will  burn  any  kind  of  soft  coal  ;  it  cokes  the  fuel  ;  the  pipes 
and  chimney  are  not  filled  up. 

The  “  Perfect”  furnace  generates  as  much  heat  from  the  gases  and 
smoke  it  consumes  as  the  ordinary  furnaces  make  from  the  coal  only. 

Using  the  hot-air  blast  draft,  more  heat  is  produced  with  very 
much  less  fuel,  and  supplying  the  oxygen  at  a  high  temperature  at 
the  point  of  combustion  above  the  surface  of  coal,  and  supplying 
oxygen  at  a  high  temperature  directly  into  the  middle  of  the  fire, 
saves  fully  50  per  cent,  of  heat  usually  wasted.  An  absolute  freedom 
from  puffing  and  explosions,  owing  to  the  hot-air  blast  draft.  Gases 
are  consumed  and  black  smoke  largely  prevented. 

Volumes  of  heat  produced  at  a  low'  cost  of  fuel.

Positive  circulating,  long-distance  heaters.  1903  construction. 
Largest  amount  of  heating  surface  to  each  square  foot  of  grate 
surface  ever  produced  in  a  warm-air  heater. 

Controls  and  forces  the  warm  air  to  long  distance  or  exposed 
rooms,  and  maintains  an  even  temperature. 

Will  heat  large  houses  that  heretofore  have  required  two 
furnaces. 

Saves  fuel.  Nearly  all  the  heat  generated  by  the  fire  is  utilized, 
just  enough  escaping  into  the  chimney  to  insure  a  draft. 

Immense  fire  surfaces  which  overhang  the  fire  in  each  air¬ 
warming  flue,  which  are  the  largest  air-heating  flues  ever  produced 
in  a  furnace.  These  flues  are  31  inches  high,  and  with  the  exten¬ 
sion  are  41 inches  in  height,  insuring  a  very  rapid  circulation  of 
air  through  them,  which  is  easily  conducted  to  rooms  to  be  heated. 

No  long  rods  are  used  in  this  construction.  None  of  the  prod¬ 
ucts  of  combustion  are  carried  below  the  top  of  the  fire  pot,  thereby 
preventing  condensation  of  smoke  and  preventing  deposits  of 
quantities  of  soot  and  creosote,  which  always  occur  where  the 
smoke  is  carried  below  the  surface  of  the  fire. 

The  corrugated  fire  pots  are  cast  in  one  piece,  and  are  gas- 
tight,  as  compared  with  others  which  have  from  three  to  eighteen 
joints.

“PERFECT”  WOOD  FURNACE 

(TRADE  MARK) 


For  Burning  Wood  4*2  and  5  Feet  Long.  Also  Fitted 
with  Coal  Fixtures  so  Coal  can  be  Used  if  Wanted 


These  furnaces,  made  especially  to  burn  wood  lengthwise,  4*4 
and  5  feet  long,  are  furnaces  of  immense  heating  capacity.  They 
are  fitted  up  with  a  long  fire  travel,  return-flue  radiator- — the  draft  all 
passing  from  the  body  or  fire  chamber  into  the  rear  of  the  radiator 
in  the  center  and  passing  forward  the  whole  length  of  radiator,  and 
then  backward  on  both  sides  of  the  radiator  surrounding  large  air 
flues  to  the  chimney.  The  result  is  that  this  long  fire  travel  smoke 
heats  large  areas  of  heating  surface  on  the  inside  of  the  radiator  as 
well  as  an  immense  surface  on  the  outside  of  the  radiator,  and  the 
smoke  and  heat  heating  this  enormous  surface  produces  large 
volumes  of  warm  air  for  heating  purposes. 

The  body  is  heavy,  durable  and  of  all  cast-iron,  with  an  immense 
surface  to  be  heated  in  the  combustion  chamber.  It  also  has  an 
ash-pit  with  the  grates  under  the  front  of  the  combustion  chamber. 

The  feed  doors  for  supplying  wood  are  double  doors  and  large. 
These  wood  furnaces  are  splendidly  constructed,  are  very  durable, 
heavy  and  of  large  dimensions.  The  construction  is  first-class  in 
every  respect. 

There  is  probably  more  heating  surface  over  which  the  air 
passes  and  against  which  the  fire  comes  in  contact  than  of  any  wood 
furnace  that  has  ever  been  constructed.  They  give  excellent  satis¬ 
faction.

RICHARDSON  &  BOYNTON  CO.’S  CAST 
HOT-AIR  PIPE  “  COLLARS  ” 

FOR  SAVING  LABOR  AND  TIME 

The  above  cut  shows  the  style  of  bonnets  generally  used  with 
furnaces  when  casings  are  ordered  by  the  trade. 

These  bonnets  allow  for  pipes  to  be  taken  off  the  top ,  which  will 
allow  for  a  quicker  and  better  flow  of  hot  air. 

With  pipe  connections  in  this  style,  the  labor,  etc.,  of  same,  will 
cost  dealers  less  than  with  side  connections  on  high  bonnets — where 
collars  often  are  put  on  the  corners. 

Elbows  should  all  be  the  same  level  on  top — otherwise  highest 
elbows  and  pipe  will  take  most  hot  air,  to  the  detriment  of  the  other 
pipes.  If  dealers  want  high  bonnets  for  side  bonnet  connections  to 
meet  special  cases,  please  designate  the  same  in  ordering  cases. 

Hot-air  pipe  cast-iron  collars  can  be  furnished  when  ordered.  Much 
labor ,  time  and  expense  will  be  saved  to  the  dealer  by  using  them.

Circumstances 


Air  supply  to  be  equal  to  four-fifths  of  total  hot-air  capacity,  and  taken 
from  west,  northwest  and  north,  as  prevailing  winds  are  from  those  directions. 

Building  an  air  closet  in  cellar  is  advantageous,  as  it  overcomes  action  of

The  outside  air  connections  are  to  be  equal  to  80  per  cent,  of 
the  total  hot-air  pipe  outlets,  and  should  be  taken  only  from  west, 
northwest  or  north. 


The  inside  air  connections  are  to  be  equal  to  the  full  capacity 
of  all  of  the  pipe  outlets. 

All  air  boxes  should  have  an  air  slide  to  regulate  air  supply 
according  to  wind  and  weather  and  state  of  fire.  Box  should  also 
have  an  inside  opening  or  door,  to  be  used  during  cold  windy  weather, 
or  at  night  when  fire  is  necessarily  low,  in  which  case  the  outside 
connection  should  be  closed  always. 

Air  boxes  should  not  be  too  direct  to  furnace,  so  air  currents 
can  be  better  controlled.

The  outside  air  supply  to  furnaces  is  to  be  equal  to  80  per  cent, 
of  the  total  capacity  of  all  the  pipes.  Air  is  to  be  taken  from  the 
west,  northwest  or  north.  For  inside  connection  the  air  supply  is  to 
be  equal  to  all  hot-air  outlets. 

One  pipe  and  register  of  several  smaller  pipes  and  registers  of 
equal  capacity  can  be  used  in  all  large  rooms  to  suit  the  requirements 
of  the  case.  All  air  boxes  should  have  an  air  slide  to  regulate  air 
supply  according  to  wind  and  weather  and  state  of  fire.  Box  should 
also  have  an  inside  opening  or  door,  to  be  used  during  very  cold  weather, 
or  at  night  when  fire  is  necessarily  low,  in  which  case  the  slide  should 
be  closed  always.  Air  boxes  should  not  be  too  direct  to  furnace,

IMPORTANT— THE  COAL  QUESTION 


I^OR  heating  purposes,  white-ash  Lehigh  coal,  stove  size,  or 
stove  and  egg  size  mixed,  is  best  to  use  in  all  cases,  according 
to  size  of  furnace. 

Lehigh  white-ash  hard  coal  gives  more  power,  burns  well,  and 
lasts  longer  than  red-ash  coal  (which  yields  a  larger  quantity  of  gas 
and  is  very  quickly  consumed).  Using  red-ash  coal  in  furnaces  will 
burn  more  weight  of  fuel,  yet  produce  less  heat  continuously,  than  if 
white-ash  coal  were  used.  For  heating  purposes,  if  possible,  use 
only  white-ash  hard  coal,  if  best  results  are  desired. 

For  small  furnaces,  use  good  white-ash  stove  coal. 

For  medium-sized  furnaces,  use  good  white-ash  stove  and  small 
egg  coal  mixed. 


For  large-sized  furnaces,  use  good  white-ash  egg  coal. 

For  moderate  seasons,  even  in  large  furnaces,  stove  and  egg 
size,  mixed,  will  enable  one  to  regulate  the  fire  better  and  control  it 
as  desired. 

Do  not  use  large  “furnace  coal”  under  any  circumstances.  It 
is  too  large  for  practical  use. 


Note. — In  a  majority  of  cases  where  people  complain  of  amount  of  fuel 
consumed  (in  any  furnace)  it  will  generally  be  found  that  red-ash  coal  is  used,  or 
occasionally  large  furnace  coal  is  purchased,  which  will  not  bum  well  except  over 
a  very  strong  constant  draft. 

Dealers  giving  above  advice  will  enable  their  customers  to  have  best  results 
in  heating.
